😂 Didn’t know we had dot matrix bugs still around; my entomology got rid of them when laser insects came out.

This pattern of marks shows the lines of spines of various venomous caterpillars. Buck moth and Io moth caterpillars are the most probable given the location and pattern of the marks.

Only hazmat attire from now on working in my yard!
Did not know that there is such a thing as a venomous caterpillar!

I will admit that, while it hurts, caterpillar stings are also quite interesting!
